I agree with the people above, I'm going to Hatton so that's not an issue. I didn't watch Manny/Marquez 3 and probably won't watch this but realistically who watched a PPV on their own? Split the cost and stop crying.

We had 8 people round for Chavez/Martinez, £2 each. If you lost £2 you wouldn't even bother looking for it.

Again the only issue is HD, I watch everything in HD. I watched Hatton Vs Urango last night on Crimetime and it really is shocking. People who say there isn't a difference are cheap and trying to justify not paying the cost for a TV and/or subscription.

The lack of HD wouldn't be such a problem if their Standard Definition transmission was decent, but it's not.

When Channel 5 show boxing the picture quality is very good in SD. Same for when ITV showed boxing. Primetime transmissions should be just as good, but they are a bunch of cheapskate amateurs and they compress their signal to ******y so it looks like you're watching a moving Monet painting. The web stream is **** too, and for the same reasons.

If they broadcast in HD it would still probably be a heavily compressed transmission, so it would still look you've smeared Vaseline over the telly, only not as much as SD.

it's not just Crimetime that do it too, the Boxnation stream is **** as well. Foreign broadcasts aren't as bad as UK ones, though.

I actually agree with you in that watching boxing in HD isn't the great experience some might make it out to be. As I said, a good SD broadcast is fine, the difference is far more noticeable with a **** channel like Primetime who compress there transmissions more than others.

However, HD broadcasts are fairly standard now so it's perfectly reasonable to expect Primetime to offer it, especially considering what they charge.

An HD broadcast will have more resolution, and should have more depth and better colour rendition than SD. It should simply look better, although this may or not be important depending on what you are watching or how fussy you are.
